Towers, I am using IE5.5 on a Wintel machine (PII 233 (yuk!) and Win98SE). Am having the same probs that others report, and only since the snowmen appeared in the background:-
- pages slow to load
- pages not loading completely and finishing with a little bit of HTML. This can be fixed with CTRL Refresh.
- Pointer flashing all the time.
- CPU running at 50% plus all the time. Everything else slow, as you'd expect with a busy CPU.
Disabling "Play Animations" in Tools|Internet Options|Advanced fixes everything.
Cheers
AA
